A Conversation with Matthew L. Skinner, author of Acts: An Interpretation Bible Commentary
A conversation with Dr. Matthew L. Skinner, professor of New Testament at Luther Seminary, who wrote the new volume in the Interpretation Bible Commentary series, “Acts.” The commentary is aimed at preachers, teachers, and anyone seeking practical insights for today. It walks through Acts from start to finish, highlighting historical, cultural, and rhetorical details, while also connecting the text to current questions around faith, community, inclusion, and church life. The book is readable and concise, designed to be useful whether you're reading straight through or focusing on specific passages. Skinner emphasizes imagination in preaching and teaching, encourages attentiveness to God and others, and acknowledges both the challenges and the beauty of the text. His goal is to help readers see how Acts still speaks today—and to remind us that even in times of change, God is faithful.
